Protect Your Pet from Fleas, Ticks, Heartworms & More

Parasites can pose serious risks to your pet’s health, often before you even realize they’re there. At Riverside Veterinary Clinic, we take a proactive approach to parasite prevention—helping protect your pet from common threats like fleas, ticks, intestinal parasites, and heartworms year-round.

With the right prevention plan, you can avoid discomfort, illness, and costly treatments down the road.

Why Parasite Prevention Matters

Parasites don’t just cause irritation—they can lead to serious health problems for both pets and people. Some can even be transmitted to humans.

Routine prevention helps:

• Prevent life-threatening conditions like heartworm disease
• Protect against skin irritation, infections, and allergic reactions
• Reduce the risk of intestinal parasites
• Keep your home and family safe

Our services include:

We’ll help you choose the right products and schedule to keep your pet protected in every season.
